Microsoft is ousing WinUI3 so why would I go for WPF instead? Remember I'm new to windows development.

by vixalien 5y ago
Show me agood guide and I'll follow it instead. The one I used was from Microsoft.

by vixalien 5y ago
The steps are simpler because you know what you're doing, The guide from Microsoft told me to download 5 different products and download the Windows App SDK as an independent component. That was 20GB plus other MBs for the SDK. When I

What they meant by saying they decoupled it from Windows SDK is that it is now only found in the Windows App SDK which in turn STRICTLY REQUIRES the Windows 10/11 SDK which also requires on other tool chains and eventually Visual Stu

You don't really understand this. You're using a shiny new computer so running Visual Studio is not a big deal to you. You wouldn't say so if you were say living in Africa and having a really shitty connection. Sublime alread

exactly. we learnt VB6 in school and developing apps was a breeze, even on school computers. But now, what a shitshow. thanks for the video BTW.

by vixalien 5y ago
yeah but I wanna build WinUI3 apps not Win32. And that requires Windows App SDK and C++ tools which in turn require Dot net and the Windows 10/11 SDK which in turn require Visual Studio which makes it 20GB storage and 10GB ram.

Is it my problem that I don't know how to run msbuild? I mean you've been building windows apps for years so it's easy for you but how tf am I supposed to know that I can't use nothing else other than VS to build a hello

I needed to install Android Studio to get the relevant android build tools, when I was done, I didn't touch android studio, I wrote all my code in Sublime and run a command that uses Android Studio's tools without opening the app.

I guess I could use WPF but I want to build a shiny Windows 11 app using the new controls

The reason I installed all those packages is because that's what the guide sid. Visual Studio literally cripples my laptop and so I switched to subl to write my code there. Btw how do I run the build results after "msbuild" b

by vixalien 5y ago
I used VS Code but I still can not run my app. I can only use VS.

by vixalien 5y ago
That's what I tried.

by vixalien 5y ago
But how do I run the built app?? msrun? msbuild run?? dotnet can "dotnet run" but msbuild??
51.
by vixalien 5y ago
I built a packaged app. The build outputs a .exe file in the build dir but when I click it, nothing happens. When I build using VS, VS automatically install the app for me and I can run it from the start menu.

btw I used this guide: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/winui/winui3/c... . 5. I wanted to build a Hello World App remember, to develop windows apps, they told me to download Visual Stud

to elabolate: 1. Open VS, wait a minute. 2. New Project 3. Run, wait 10 minutes for dependencies to download. 4. Want to use Sublime Text or VS Code, haha lol.

I think the web is not the answer to all. All I wanted to build was a native windows app. Not to mention that Electron apps (or zombie apps as some call them) are very resource intensive and bloated. It's basically running the entirety

I'm also curious for workflows. I saw none that works with Sublime Text. Moreover I couldn't even find a simple build script.

I want to build using the native stacks as it's verrrrrrry fast.

dotnet does not work with winui3 apps. I can't link the relevant stackoverflow answer from a microsoft dev. You can only use msbuild.

I know. This is what windows need to learn from *nix.
